PCMS students selected to all-district band

In early November, at Jackson High School, approximately 400 of Southeast Missouri's finest high school and middle school musicians gathered to compete for positions in the Southeast Missouri All-District High School Band and All-District Middle School Band.

This year five from Perryville Middle School were selected to the Band. Middle school members are: (from left) Jonny Pruiett (8th chair trombone); Kennedy Murakami (7th chair saxophone); Sasha Moore, (17th chair clarinet); Justin Gross (7th chair trumpet); and Emily Kuehn (3rd chair French horn).

The students traveled to Sikeston High School to rehearse with the All- District Band. The concert was held in the Sikeston Field House. The Middle School All-District Band was under the direction of Herman Byrd and the High School All-District Band was under the direction of Barry Bernhardt.
